Sony Owner, 23 Aug 2009A survey......
Firmware: R1FA035
Performance: Actuall... moreMy phone is noticeably faster! Most ppl are happy with the update thus far so which firmware version do you have exactly? A branded version or a generic version?
I have my phone since July 10 and nothing's peeled off yet - let's hope it stays that way (and no, i do not have a plastic case).
Value for money - 2/10 is pushing it a bit (but you're entitled to your own opinion); while I agree that SE phones are highly priced, this particular model is absolutely worth the cash spent, and the build quality is excellent (very solid).
Besides video recording/playback capabilities, there's nothing this phone cannot really do.
My verdict: superb all-in-one device (I chose it over Samsung Innov8 btw even tho I W995 costs more in my region).

This is a great looking phone, with all the features I want - I've always appreciated SE's UI, and although am stuck w my LG Renoir for another 10 months (and it's touchscreen texting nightmare), can't wait to move onto this...or it's successor....

Upgraded firmware to R1FA035.
Has anyone noticed if your volume has gone DOWN in quality?
I use the speakerphone and the volume is set near the top but it's barely audible.
The ring volume hasn't been affected by the call reception has. It sounds like it's very distant and I had to increase the volume somewhat.
Anyone have anything similar or different??
Thanks!

In 1 to 10.
The Highe... moreA survey......
Firmware: R1FA035
Performance: Actually, it's SLIGHTLY SLOWER than before! Don't know why!! It's still OK but... there is a slower pause when switching between apps!
Phone reception is still good!
Rating: 7/10
Build: Very solid and slider still works well (knock on wood)! SE name already peeled mostly off. Put in clear plastic case to preserve the phone.
Rating: 8/10
NOTE:
It does NOT matter if you "take good care of phone" without a case! The daily rubbing of phone inside a pocket will eventually Rub off the cheap ass sticker!
Put the phone in a clear case to preserve the casing! PERIOD!
Price to features: Fair.
Almost ALL SE phones are OVERPRICED!
Too many owners reporting problems with build or software, even the little ones like the sticker peelings!
Rating: 2/10

Performance: 9/10 (was 8/10) - faster thru menus, faster camera speed - just love it
Build quality: 9/10 - solid and beautiful in every respect except for the front name and the 8.1 at the back peeling off for some ppl - never happened to mine yet (i look after my phone) :)

Every painted on decal on my phone has rubbed off sony ericsson on the front the 8.1megapixel on the back cover and the M2 symbol on the side of the batt cover,no worrie`s Im still full of joy!!!Ohh yeah I found something interesting!!!I was playing a song in the walkman player while the song is still playing go into settings and activate stereo widening hit the back button and go back in settings and and turn it off the phone will start staticing while you have the static go back into setting and go to equalizer from the equalizer you can browse through the 400Hz-16kHz frequency spectrum.Hmm... wonder what that is for...If you try it make sure that a song is playing in the back ground and turn the volume all the way down to one click before silence.

(i.e.- play pause, delete from playlist etc)... the "activity menu" button is not associated with walkman player. :) thats why it is not glowing red..
if u look closely u will see, in the side of the mobile there are 3 more button glowing red... all of them are assosiated with walkman task :)
so, dont worry.
